"You won't stop me at all?" Jun Wu Xie stared at Elder Ying's departing back and she gently waved her hand to summon the little black cat out. She carried the little black cat and walked straight to a corner of the jail cell. The jail cell looked very neat and tidy and it must have been cleaned up by Elder Ying.
Jun Xie found a clean place to sit down and the little black cat in her arms shifted its body a little and found a comfortable spot to nestle in.
"Meow!"
This Elder Ying is so strange. Why do I keep getting the feeling that he harbors ill intentions towards the Shadow Moon Palace?
An animal's sixth sense was always especially sharp and the little black cat had already heard every single word that Elder Ying said from within Jun Wu's body.
Jun Wu Xie had obviously taken the place of his disciple to appear in the Shadow Moon Palace but Elder Ying had not shown the slightest interest in Chang Huan's whereabouts and had even lent Jun Wu a helping hand at the opportune moment. Although he had given Jun Wu a condition to live, but ….. he did not care in the slightest whether Jun Wu would pose a threat to the Shadow Moon Palace.
The little black cat racked its brains but still could not understand what Elder Ying was trying to do.
Jun Wu Xie lowered her head and slowly stroked the little black cat's fur, at the same time sorting through the information in her mind.
"Elder Ying is not a direct disciple of the Shadow Moon Palace. Do you still remember what Yue Yi said before? Elder Ying had only joined the Shadow Moon Palace when he was thirty five years old. Before that, he was merely the heir to an ancient family clan, and the only heir. "Jun Wu Xie said with her eyes lowered. Elder Ying's strange behavior might be related to his identity.
In the Middle Realm, though the power of the Nine Temples and Twelve Palaces was highly alluring, but there were many families and powers that had existed for a very long time that would avoid them.
It was true that it was good to enjoy the shade under a big tree, but if this big tree was a man-eating tree, not many people would be willing to become its nutrients.
Every single family clan that had existed for a long time would definitely have their own pride and beliefs. That was the legacy that their ancestors had accumulated over many generations, and it was also the wealth that they had left behind for them. Asking them to join the Twelve Palaces or the Nine Temples, would mean that they would have to give up their identity in the family, to become a member of the Nine Temples or the Twelve Palaces, a synonym.
If it was a large family, it wouldn't be strange for some people to have such thoughts.
But Elder Ying was the last member of his family. The day he became an Elder of the Shadow Moon Palace, was equivalent to him giving up on his own family, completely erasing all traces of his family's existence.
Before she had met Elder Ying, Jun Wu Xie had guessed that Elder Ying was a person who was eager for quick success, or he would not have stood on equal footing with Elder Yue. But after really meeting Elder Ying, Jun Wu Xie had completely overturned that guess.
In Elder Ying's eyes, she could not see the slightest bit of the raging flames of lust, but only that highly repressed emotion.
What was he suppressing?
Jun Wu Xie did not know, but there was one thing she was certain of. Elder Ying might not be that loyal to the Shadow Moon Palace.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed a person of unknown origin to impersonate him.
"No matter what his goal is, we both take what we need. There's nothing wrong with that." Jun Wu Xie was very satisfied with her current situation. Being imprisoned in this place, might make it easier for her to move around.
"Meow …"
There's nothing bad about you at all. But do you know that if not for Elder Ying's timely appearance earlier, the Great Demon Lord would have been unable to hold himself back from slaughtering his way out to bathe the Shadow Moon Palace in blood!
